Posted July 27, 201213 yr Just start off by saying this will be a very slooooooow build. The car is stripped down to bare metal and will take a while to get back together. Plus the fact that I don't have a garage I may have to put the car in storage for part of fall/winter.The goal is to either use some of the equipment in my xb in this car, all of it, or buy more. For this season I am concentrating on the xb and will hopefully have the honda up by march.I have high hopes for this car, looking for 160+ sealed on the dash. Hopefully I can reach this goal. And if not it'll at least be funny to watch me drive the car into the lane.Looking to go with a flat black paint job atm, but how knows that may change.But keep in mind this build will take quite a while and I can't wait.Got this car for $300 bucks and a asus tablet I never use. It's in fairly good shape, the worst being the front fenders but those should be easily fixable. One of the bigger plans is to take out the manual fan and replace it with an electronic fan so that I can use the one and only pulley on the motor for whatever the biggest alt i can find to fit in there.Its got a whopping 31hp 2 cylinder motorcycle engine in this bad boy.First plans on the audio I think is a box to fit where the backseat was. Looking to see what I can do before I think of walling it. Edited July 27, 201213 yr by liljestrand
July 27, 201213 yr Author Thanks guys. We got so many funny looks today while driving around.Even with all of the parts and spare parts in the car it was still easy to lift and move.

July 27, 201213 yr Author Its a honda n600. Will I fit in it? Who knows? Im a large fellow. But its being built for spl so it will be towed to comps
July 27, 201213 yr Cool project!My son just saw the pic. He says is that in the bed of his truck? The box we are building is bigger than his car! Lol
July 28, 201213 yr Lmao nice u actually got one. I remember u talkin to me about gettin one.Can't wait to see how this turns out.
July 30, 201213 yr Author And very slow lol.I managed to ospho and primer the car today . Didn't get a pic cus my rattle can skills are lacking.
July 30, 201213 yr Awesome man! What engine are you going to put in it? Just one that will drive you into the lane?
July 30, 201213 yr Author It came with a rebuilt stock engine that looks pretty clean so Ill get that checked out and probably just roll with that.Its got 1 pulley on it for the fan, I can just swap that for an electric fan and we'll see what alt I can fab in that wont instantly kill the engine.Plus I got a extra motor and tranny that is torn apart atm that I may possibly bore out etc and get this thing up to 40 hp lol.
July 30, 201213 yr Author We'll see. He had all the parts in tubs, so I gotta go through all that and figure what I have and what I need.
